I think that's technically legal, since -1 to Will is a -5 points disadvantage, so you could do it via the "Disadvantage" enhancement.

I'm not even sure why Attribute Penalty got priced separately at basically half the cost lowered IQ/DX (10 instead of 20) and HT/ST (5 in stead of 10) would be be.

However it is MUCH cheaper to simply say that the attack reduce Will by -20 for (+5%*20 = +100%) Is this really true?
Yeah, it's weird. Might be interesting for Cumulative to be valued as a multiple based on the value of other enhancements you choose instead of a flat cost.

Innate Attack with Symptoms. Price a -1 to will at the 1/3 and 1/2 and 2/3 intervals.
